Texas Football was in the running for the graduate transfer from Notre Dame. However, it appears Malik Zaire will be heading to Florida for the 2017 college football season.
SEC officials met last week to discuss a number of topics, including a rule change on graduate transfers. That has opened the door for Zaire to transfer to Florida.
It’s not official, as Zaire has to clear an academic issue, according to ESPN, but his intentions are to head to Gainesville.
Texas was in the running for Zaire as a graduate transfer to back up Shane Buechele and Sam Ehlinger.
